How They Work
When placed in your sifter with matcha powder, the gentle bumping motion between the beads creates kinetic friction.This action shatters powder clusters on contact, allowing ultra-fine matcha to pass through the sieve mesh at a much faster speed than manual spoon sifting.

MATCHA FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is matcha?
Matcha is a powdered Japanese green tea made from shade-grown tea leaves that are stone-ground into a fine powder. Unlike regular green tea, the whole tea leaf is consumed, resulting in a richer flavour and higher nutrient content.
What does ceremonial grade matcha mean?
Ceremonial grade matcha refers to high-quality matcha intended to be enjoyed with water. It is typically smoother, less bitter, and more umami-forward than culinary-grade matcha.
Is Matcha Diary matcha suitable for beginners?
Yes. Matcha Diary focuses on smooth, low-bitterness ceremonial matcha, making it approachable for beginners and suitable for daily drinking.
Where is Matcha Diary matcha sourced from?
Matcha Diary is an Australian brand sourcing Japanese matcha directly from Japan, including renowned tea-growing regions such as Uji, Kyoto.
What does matcha taste like?
High-quality matcha has a smooth, creamy texture with natural sweetness, gentle umami, and minimal bitterness. Flavour can vary depending on origin, cultivar, and harvest.
Does matcha contain caffeine?
Yes. Matcha contains natural caffeine. Because the whole tea leaf is consumed, the caffeine content is higher than brewed green tea, though it is often described as providing a calmer, more sustained energy.
Can matcha be used for lattes?
Yes. Ceremonial grade matcha can be enjoyed both traditionally with water (usucha) and in matcha lattes. Matcha Diary matcha is selected to perform well in both.
How should matcha be prepared?
For traditional preparation, whisk 1.5–2g of matcha with 60–70ml of water at 70–75°C until frothy. For lattes, more matcha can be used according to taste preference during whisking process, then add milk after whisking.
How should matcha be stored?
Matcha should be stored in an airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture. Refrigeration is recommended to maintain freshness, especially in warmer climates.
Is matcha suitable for daily drinking?
Yes. Many people enjoy matcha daily as part of their morning or wellness routine. Choosing a smooth ceremonial grade helps ensure comfort and enjoyment over time.
Is Matcha Diary an Australian brand?
Yes. Matcha Diary is an Australian brand focused on curating Japanese matcha for modern daily rituals.
HOJICHA FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hojicha?
Hojicha is a Japanese roasted green tea. Unlike matcha, hojicha is roasted at high temperatures, which reduces bitterness and caffeine while creating warm, nutty, and roasted flavours.
Is hojicha low in caffeine?
Yes. Hojicha is naturally low in caffeine due to the roasting process and the use of mature tea leaves or stems. It is suitable for evenings and caffeine-sensitive drinkers.
What does hojicha taste like?
Hojicha has a toasty, roasted flavour with notes that can range from nutty and caramel-like to chocolatey, depending on the roast level.
Is hojicha suitable for beginners?
Yes. Hojicha is very approachable and gentle, making it ideal for those new to Japanese tea or those who find matcha too intense.
Can hojicha be used for lattes?
Yes. Hojicha powder works especially well in lattes, as its roasted flavour pairs beautifully with milk.
What is the difference between light and dark roasted hojicha?
Light-roasted hojicha is cleaner and more delicate, while dark-roasted hojicha has deeper, bolder, and more chocolate-like notes.
Is Matcha Diary an Australian brand?
Yes. Matcha Diary is an Australian brand sourcing Japanese tea directly from Japan.
